Only in Fiction/That's a Joke

How can we live? With the facts presented like this Obvious lies Spread the word on how predictable we are We're manipulated into thinking we're all a A god Hateful, intended to show we all all hide From ourselves We can never learn To control our pride But in the end it will come Thinking in the moment, I guess I've never considered this before An image of a place we sit and discover each other But that's a joke That sounds nice, but only in fiction That sounds nice, but only in fiction We love to see you when you're down Where do we draw the line? To fear what's to come To fight it head on and to settle the score What to do with all these problems Nothing is as it seems All in me The way it's supposed to be Inward we go Straight to resolutions The way to simply be Too much time has passed since I drift away Pondering outcomes I played myself The second time should be the last time for me to think about Parade in the moment Don't struggle with it Too much time has passed since I drift away Pondering outcomes Too much time has passed since I drift away Pondering outcomes As I go on thoughts will trample Crumbling before me Would love to see them gone Just work with myself and I'll feel inside The solutions were there the whole time Would live to see them ride Why do you feel like we love to see you when you're down?
